This speeds up the creation of the cache for the nixpkgs flake from 21.2s to 10.2s. Oddly, it also speeds up querying the cache (i.e. running 'nix flake show nixpkgs/nixos-20.03 --legacy') from 4.2s to 3.4s. (For comparison, running with --no-eval-cache takes 9.5s, so the overhead of building the SQLite cache is only 0.7s.) |

Nix, the purely functional package manager
Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.
To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at https://nixos.org/nix/manual.
